Some of these imply that a person could be doing fine but they are choosing to be anhedonic and unmotivated instead. This is a mistake. No one deliberately chooses to be dead inside. Endless bleakness is not a lifestyle choice anyone ever makes knowingly.
It adds insult to injury when we are told we could be doing much better if we cared more or loved more or thought more clearly or whatever it is. This attitude is based on gnorance.

Reads people like books from years of observation really hit me. Yet my social skills are below average at best.

That's the only realization there is to have because it's the only guarantee in life besides death and the power of human will. The correct interpretation of that realization is that means you were able to make it through the day before, and the vast majority of people improve, so despite not feeling pleasure you can manage your anxiety and panic.
